Great, but never again.
The game that showed Xbox One's capabilities truly did just that. The games graphics are unbelievable, the voice acting spot on and the story is one that should honestly be made into a movie. Where the game falls flat is it's meat and potatoes gameplay. There is nothing new or inventive about it, although fun to watch the finishers, because its simply slash, smash, stab and toss. The levels are beautiful to look at and help make the game, but the boss fights are exactly the same and so is everything else. I understand this game was simply to show off Xbox Ones new features, but still there could've been more to the gameplay. This is a game I'd tell everyone to play just for the story, the graphics and to see Ancient Rome, but to get it pre-owned because you'll knock out the story in a few hours and due to the lack of changing gameplay not want to play it again. Once again although I rated this as a 6 overall, the story is what makes the game worth a play through.

Ryse: Son of Rome Review
Ryse: Son of Rome is a sword fighting action game set within ancient Rome. You play as Marius a soldier who rises up the ranks to become a great hero and protects Rome both from barbarians and it's rulers. First off the graphics in this game were gorgeous, they truly showed off what the Xbox One can do, everything from the lighting to the textures were stunning with very few glitches. The sound was good it set the mood pretty well during battles, the voice acting was done well to, just wish there was some more emotion in their voices when they spoke during emotional scenes. The gameplay was extremely smooth, fun, and fairly easy to master, although the ability to kill everybody on a quick time events got tiresome after seeing all the executions, as well as messing up the quick time events didn't end in a penalty. These problems were minor and I was very happy with them gameplay. The story good as well, I was coming into it thinking it was just going to be a half baked story about the fall of Rome, but it turned out to be good with some surprising moments and that the ending wasn't a fairy tale one, that kept me entertained through out, the lasting appeal is decent nothing I would really replay just because it's that time of game but I would recommend it to anyone who love sword fighting games, history, or blood. So I would give Ryse: Son of Rome a 9/10 for stunning visuals, great gameplay, and an entertaining story, I would say a must have for Xbox One owners.

Blown away.
I was not expecting this game to be as good as it is. I seen videos and it didn't impress me at all until I finally decided to buy the game myself. The graphics sure do show what next gen consoles can put out, my dad came in the room from the noise saying "What movie are you watching?" The gameplay flows perfectly and I wouldn't say anything is wrong with it. The ONLY problem I have with the game is that the enemies all look alike. You can tell the different enemies by their identity, with a next gen game you'd think the enemies would have at least different faces or facial hair, but nope. BUT don't be discouraged because you will barely ever notice that because the graphics of the entire game are just awe-inspiring. Please give this game a chance, it is definitely worth the money.

Paid Reviewers are outta touch
This game is simply awesome. It has a really good story with high quality cinematic events. Game is sick I'm constantly trying to improve my combos and setup sick executions. Also PLEASE try Gladiator mode it is setup like the Ancient Coliseums were where historic events were recreated. You can upgrade your Gladiator gear and such via doing the different kinds of missions. You earn gold then you in turn by booster packs with the gold ranging from bronze to gold. This game has solid replay value. Reviewers giving this game less then a 7 should be ashamed. Its like half god of war and half arcade fighter & I think the problem was these reviewers were rating it on a complete god of war thought which if they were was a huge mistake.
I implore everyone to try this game out somehow which ever way you can. It's got so much potential as a franchise but I fear reviewers will scare away the support this game needs and deserves for a sequel.

Gladiator the game
I've always been a fan of Roman history, both factual and fictitious. I, like most, was blown away by the graphics when I saw the first trailer of Ryse. But then all the first impressions came out stating it was nothing but QTEs and dull combat. Action games tend to rely on QTEs nowadays, so you might want to get on board or avoid the genre. That being said, I found this to be my first true next gen experience. The story is epic, with great settings and characters (you will HATE the true villains). The graphics are absolute gorgeous, the motion capture is fantastic, and the executions are awesome. Gameplay is smooth and responsive and combat is very fun, especially on higher difficulty levels. Multiplayer in the arena is fun solo or co-op, with various arenas and challenges to face (definitely try the Wicker Man with a friend). Despite negative reviews, I urge you to give this one a try and see for yourself. Many have predicted this to become a cult classic, and I can safely agree with that assumption.

Incredible graphics, Quick to complete game...
Compared to other games currently out on the Xbox One this one tops them in terms of graphics. It shows you where the game devs are and where they can be in the next year or two in terms of graphics. The game is a typical hack and slash with the occasional option to throw a spear making the game easy to master. MAJOR problem for this game is that anyone could rent this and pretty much return it the same day. The story to the campaign is captivating but short lived.
Online play is mildly entertaining but matchmaking is terrible unless you have a friend to play with. The arena mode is easily completed on solo mode though so if you just want to go through round after round of beating bots then this is the game for you. If you are looking to play player v player gladiator style fights you will not find that in this game.
Overall I would recommend playing this game but I would be think twice before spending 60 bucks on a game that loses its luster after the second time through the campaign.

The Low Reviews Shouldn't Be Trusted
Ryse is without a doubt the benchmark for which all next gen games should strive for in terms of graphics. It's absolutely incredible to see this game in motion. Crytek has created something that feels distinct enough while remaining similar to other games. They've created a game with combat more akin to Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, but they've made the combat much more challenging overall. While it's true that it's essentially a one trick pony in gameplay and does get a little repetitive, the combat is so satisfying, visceral and challenging, that it's easy to enjoy. And like I said, the graphics are the best of the best. The scenery in this game will leave your jaw dragging on the floor long after you finish playing.
Ryse is a game every fan of video games should have in their collection. It's not without its issues, however the pros far outweigh the cons in the beautiful introduction to the next generation of gaming.

Review or Ryse Son of Rome
Graphics 10/10. It visually is quite amazing, you almost feel like you’re watching an epic bloody violent Ancient Rome movie .............................
Story 9/10. I might be a little biased because I love anything from Ancient Rome. But to me the story seems fantastic. Epic war with Barbarians, treachery, deceit. And did I mention, IT TAKES PLACE IN ANCIENT ROME. Also its only 8 chapters, but each are fairly long and if your one of those guys who really likes the game or plays through it again for achievements then you’ll get a lot of extra time in the story .........
Gameplay 8/10. Some would argue that the quicktime events make Ryse a very boring game, but im very far into it and am loving it, I don’t mind quicktime events at all, and the great graphics and great story sorta makes you forget your playing a quicktime game .........................................
Multiplayer. 8/10. The Gladiator arena mode is very fun, it would have been even more fun if players could fight each other instead of having to team up with each other, but its still very fun and will keep you entertained for many extra hours
Overall it gets a 9/10
